My wife just called in to a local radio show this morning.
Everyone was complaining about the dead-beats who aren’t paying their mortgage.
They were blown away when they heard our story.
So have you called a lawyer yet? Publicity is good, but it needs to be part of a legal strategy.
The fact that you were making payments, and (presumably) have paperwork from Chase indicating a reduced payment should give you some grounds to say you acted in good faith and hold off the foreclosure.
Frankly, I don’t know why Chase would want your house when you are making an effort to pay and taking care of the property. Many banks are avoiding foreclosures even on complete deadbeats because of the glut of them and every house they foreclose on is a tax and insurance liability.
On the other hand, my experience earlier this year convinced me that Chase is a collection of dumb a$$es never to do business with again, so who knows what they would do
